I was one to agree with you for a time, but at this point I’m not even sure what the plan could actually be, US treasury bonds are taking a big hit because of this shit and the global economic order is shifting to exclude the US and could even endanger the dollar as the world reserve currency. That’s a change so seismic no one could even predict what it would mean for anyone. If that’s his intention then whoever came up with the plan is stupid beyond all imagining

This is one of my all time favorites and you’re right, very few copies were even sold in the US, my brother is the only other person I know IRL that is even aware of its existence and that’s because we played it together

I was there and voted my dick off to keep this asshole out of office

The one I went to in a major city was at least 25-30k if I’m being really conservative in my estimate. 500k over 1200 locations, even with many of those being smaller simply cannot be anything less than purposeful misreporting. The video and pictures I’ve seen from around the country showed a massive turnout. Potentially the largest protest in US history

Every piece of mainstream media coverage I’ve seen on the protests, one of which I was at, has severely down played the numbers. It’s dishonest reporting designed to prevent the resistance from gaining momentum and growing.

I think this is more from Silicon Valley, destroy the country to make way for the Butterfly Revolution and corporate city states with CEO kings at the top. If we don’t stop it we’ll be in a techno feudalist dystopia

I mean… he could order a golden throne at any point and it wouldn’t surprise me

Honestly I felt like this for a long time but Schumer and other dems capitulating has me worried. Civil war is looking like a best case scenario pipe dream the way things are developing. I expect this summer to be intense, crazy, and potentially the last chance ‘we the people’ have to stand up.

Alabama had to elect a football coach and they couldn’t even make it the smart one

Dude I thought we all agreed that you can’t just drop links to TV Tropes all willy nilly like that. I have things to do today

We’re not even getting the cool parts of cyberpunk like cybernetic limbs.

We should really be doing that regardless, the corporation has outlived its utility and has become a chain on the collective neck of humanity

I need to tell my brother to vacation in Uruguay this winter

It obviously wouldn’t get us out of this nightmare that reality has become, but it would make me feel just a bit happy to watch Elon’s smug ass get his face eaten by the leopard

This is very prelude to hell

She usually is on one level or the other

Edit: shit I mean usually is right

So I’m glad you said this, I’ve been having a hard time the past week because I don’t see any way out of our current situation beyond what you have just described and it’s been stressing me because I’ve both felt alone in my conclusions and not wanted to ask my friends, family, and coworkers if I’m way out of bounds because I don’t want to make this time harder on them than I know it already is.

Granted I still don’t feel great about the potentiality of losing my life in such events but I’m grateful to you for making me feel less alone right now. Cheers!

I really really really hope you’re right

Let’s not blaspheme the muppets now, Jim Henson did nothing wrong. I can’t say the same about the Lambchop lady and all her war crimes
